KUALA LUMPUR, 28 SEPTEMBER 2026 —
Citrine One Group staged a one-day financial literacy programme for 12 children aged nine to 14 at the Perdana Leadership Foundation in Putrajaya on 19 September 2026, the foundation said in a statement.
The event, titled “Nimbus Presents Money Wise Tales: Adventures in Financial Literacy for Kids”, was organised by Citrine One Group with the foundation as venue host. Executive chairman Ivlynn Yap opened the session, followed by remarks from foundation chief executive Puan Zarina Abu Bakar, who asked participants whether they believed money was important; most raised their hands, according to the statement.
Author Redza Arbee, who wrote the “Money Wise Tales” series, guided the students through five interactive modules. Module 1 covered the basic concepts and functions of money. Module 2 addressed budgeting and saving, focusing on distinguishing needs from wants and building early saving habits.
After a morning break, Module 3 introduced entrepreneurship fundamentals, encouraging creative thinking about ideas and opportunities while stressing responsible earning and money management. Participants then toured the foundation and the Merdeka Exhibition 2026, which traces Malaysia’s path to independence and nation-building.
The afternoon sessions covered wise spending decisions in Module 4 and inflation and purchasing power in Module 5, explaining how price changes affect the value of money. The programme closed with a feedback session and a group photograph involving participants, secretariat members and parents.
The foundation said the combination of interactive learning, practical examples and hands-on activities aimed to give children early exposure to financial concepts that support positive money habits. No further sessions or expansion plans were announced.
